When I moved to Bath I was looking for a gym with excellent trainers, programmes that helped you progress as well as fitness and motivation. Caliunity had it all. It feels more like a community of like minded members who love to keep fit and have fun while they do it. What a fantastic concept. Great to see that all abilities can gain from the programmes and love the way we all get to support each other. Absolutely fantastic!!!

To say that CaliUnity has shaped my life for the better is an understatement. I’ve tried so many things—gym workouts, Zumba, you name it—but nothing ever truly stuck. CaliUnity made me fall in love with calisthenics, and in turn, helped me love myself again.
If you told me four weeks ago that I’d be able to do a headstand, I would’ve laughed. But now I can’t stop doing them!
After having my daughter in 2023, I lost hope of ever getting back in shape. I used to hate what I saw in the mirror. But the incredible community at CaliUnity, along with the talented, fun, and supportive instructors, go above and beyond to bring out the best in you in every aspect. I especially appreciate how they care not just about your training, but also your nutrition and mental wellbeing.
It truly is an amazing place—a safe haven, if you will. ❤️

I’ve been a member for over a year and now Cali has become a staple part of my routine. I was unfit, overweight, lonely and lacked motivation- which all added up to lethargy and low mood. Attending regularly has helped me to see results, gain skills and feel part of a lovely community with great coaches and members. I’ve increased my membership to three sessions a week I love it so much. I couldn’t recommend CaliUnity more! Thanks guys 🙏

I never thought I could be one of those people who has been to the gym before school drop off. But much to my own surprise I have been (happily!) doing this a few days a week since joining CaliUnity in July.
I have always loved exercise but have never been a fan of the gym - the bright lights, noise and not having a clue what to do when I get there. I had been doing yoga, 10 min HIITs in the park and some cardio here and there but didn't know where to start with strength training.
At CaliUnity I have discovered a new love of callisthenics. The movements are fun and the coaches are expert at tailoring them for every level - you are always learning what your body can do and gradually pushing not punishing it. I have discovered exercise that feels amazing, not another thing I feel I have to do but something I now can't imagine not doing.
The joy is down to the staff and the community. Everyone is supportive, welcoming and real - no egos, judgment or pressure. Lots of places talk about 'community' but at Cali you really feel it. The space is much more inviting than a regular gym. Its light and airy and people stand chatting around drinkin hot freshly ground coffee after class - there is no posturing or complicated gym equipment.
As a nutritionist in my mid 40s I am very aware of the importance of strength training for menopause. I want to be strong, protect my muscles and bones and keep my mid-life tummy at bay. Callisthenics is brilliant for everyone but especially for mid-life as in combines strength, mobility and flexibility. I needed a more structured routine, guidance from experienced real-life trainers and genuine encouragement from lovely people (which I wasn't getting from HIIT videos on youtube) - I have found this at CaliUnity.
Thank you to the wonderful Cali team and family for making movement such a pleasure.

The workout is top notch and the coaches and members are all so positive and helpful. It's more than a gym, it's a community of likeminded individuals focused on fitness, wellness, and the community. Where else can you learn new skills, increase strength and flexibility, and make new friends at the same time? Cali really is a unique gym and community. Did your gym give you a personalized birthday card on your birthday? I bet not!

CaliUnity has made strength training so much fun. All of the coaches are highly skilled and genuinely care about each members growth, helping you build both strength and skill at every level. The community is so welcoming and supportive, encouraging you to stay motivated. I love being part of the Cali community and look forward to seeing what happens next in my my calisthenics journey :)

Everything about CaliUnity is next-level: the trainers, the sessions, the fresh new space, the community....
I was looking for a gym in Bath that offered something a bit different - something that would excite me and change my training up a little - and Cali hits the sweet spot. The calisthenics sessions are designed to help you to build (functional) strength and hone new skills, all under the supervision of a fantastic and welcoming team in a "small-group PT" setting. Mobility / Yoga sessions and more-active "reps and sets" sessions are also available, to add a bit of variety and develop whole-body fitness.
Add to this the regular one-to-one coaching, unlimited use of the gym, and the approachable trainers who are keen to help you progress, and CaliUnity is a top-notch gym that I would recommend to anybody looking to build strength, improve mobility, and learn new skills (handstand push-up anyone?). It beats fighting gravity with dumbbells ad infinitum.

Being 62, it was with a little trepidation that I began a form of personal training that was completely new to me and so far removed from pumping weights, running, rucking and swimming that I am used to, however, I liked the look of the new Calisthenics gym in Walcot Street and the charming reception that I got when I popped my head in to say hello.
That was 8 weeks ago and, despite never having done gymnastics and carrying injuries to partially replaced knees, my lower back and both shoulders, the highly professional, kind and super friendly trainers have really helped me enormously over these last 8 weeks as have my fellow athletes of all types.....from beginners to super fit young athletes.
I am now considerably stronger than I have been for years and I can feel that by year one, I will have reached my body weight goals and be much leaner and fitter.
The training is what you want to make of it.....there's no high-pitched screaming like I have experienced in spin classes nor bellowing as per the army but just a constant stream of encouragement from everyone, the atmosphere is always so incredibly positive and mindful and one arrives and leaves with a great sense of wellness and wellbeing.
Progress is carefully measured and the more that you put in, the faster your progress moves forward.
Whether you are a desk jockey or couch potato or a really fit athlete looking for a new challenge, I cannot recommend CaliUnity too strongly for its friendliness, positive culture and personal results and look forward to continuing my training regime with these lovely people for many years to come.

Why I love CaliUnity
I’m so glad I discovered CaliUnity.
At 50+ I’m increasingly conscious of the need to build and maintain a level of health and fitness as I grow older.
I walked into CaliUnity on day one and was met with such warmth and support both from the Cali team, and also from other members, all of whom who took me under their collective wings as I floundered around as a very obvious newbie.
It might sound trite but I immediately felt at home, and very comfortable making a total fool of myself.
6 weeks later (at the end of their introductory challenge) I’d lost weight and gained strength, flexibility and new skills that, frankly, no self-respecting 50+ year old kid should be without.
Doing your first handstand in, well, goodness knows how long, feels like a major milestone and triggers a ridiculously childlike sense of joy and pride.
Beyond the wonderful people and sense of community, the beauty of CaliUnity is that there is a never-ending journey of new things to learn, and so many different ways to get upside-down in the name of fitness.
It’s a joy.

CaliUnity has the perfect balance of challenge and progression for any level of ability blended with a very welcoming and inclusive vibe all based around the core principles of calisthenics. A really well set out training space that relies on good coaching and form to get the most out of own bodyweight exercises. It really is amazing what is being achieved without a reliance on a glut of high tech equipment.
Each coach brings their own style and specialist skills and classes are available before, during and after the working day to make it accessible for all.
If the traditional gym set up is not working for you and you want a fresh challenge, I cannot recommend this highly enough (and that is on the back of 40 years worth of sports and physical training experience)

Sarah Paterson
Joining CaliUnity in Bath has been one of the best decisions I’ve made for myself :) I’ve been a member for around three months now, and the progress I’ve seen in both my skills and strength is incredible.
The community here is genuinely one of the nicest I’ve ever come across—everyone leaves their ego at the door, and the focus is all on supporting each other to improve, and having fun!
The coaching team strikes the perfect balance between professionalism and friendliness. They’re always encouraging, and their relaxed yet expert approach has helped me feel confident while pushing my limits.
If you’re looking for a place to challenge yourself and be part of an amazing, positive community, I can’t recommend CaliUnity enough!

I am really enjoying the gym sessions at Cali. The coaches are professional and supportive, making exercises easy to follow no matter your fitness level. The workouts are a perfect mix of strength- building and challenging routines and the supportive atmosphere from peers makes it doable and fun. The positive energy is a real boost and I always feel great after a session !

I love this place! Awesome classes and community. If you want to get fit, join this gym. They have a really friendly team of some of the best instructors in Bath who clearly care about what they do! I've done most classes - Reps & Sets, Skills & Strength, Mobility, Skills & Sweat, would gladly recommend all.

I have so many things I want to say about CaliUnity.
First a bit about me: I had been thinking of joining a new gym after nearly two years absent. I had been slowly recovering from having Lyme disease and the chronic tiredness that came with it.
I was feeling a bit apprehensive about making that first step.
I can confidently say I haven’t looked back since joining this amazing gym/community/family.
Everyone so welcoming and supportive that it made the transiting so easy. Above all enjoyable. I love going along and feeling my body getting stronger and trying out new movements, such as handstands, ring work.
There is something for everyone. No matter what you’re looking for, from yoga, restorative practices, learning foundation/beginner movements to the advanced techniques and high octane reps and sets.
If your wanting to get fit through having fun in a motivated, supportive upbeat environment than CaliUnity is definitely for you.
If I could give them 6 stars 🌟 I would 😁

Where do I start...
CaliUnity has been such a fantastic experience for me and, I am sure, for many others. I've been going to CaliUnity for a little over a year and a half and honestly have never experienced anything like it within the fitness world! Kiera, Ollie and the coaches are the most welcoming and friendliest people you will genuinely ever meet, and that is not exaggerated. The energy they bring to the classes is such a positive vibe it for sure makes you feel like you are in a safe space and that you can show your true self without feeling judged which in a regular gym I am sure most people feel. I would 100% recommend joining CaliUnity!!!

Lizzie Wraith
Before Cali I was struggling to get into a good routine with doing strength work, but this Gym has been amazing. The coaches are fantastic, the classes are great fun and the community is so friendly. 3 months on and I’m feeling stronger and fitter, and super grateful for the Cali team. 100% recommend!

Catherine Ridley
Where to begin with the awesome CaliUnity? I have found a space where I can get fit, strong and flexible: where there is a range of classes that are conveniently timed, that all work towards achieving fun and impressive calisthenics skills. I have found coaches who are truly invested in my progress, who continuously encourage me, pushing me to achieve my goals, helping me with nutrition, guiding me through my blockers. And finally I have found a community of normal, but extraordinary people, a lot of whom have become friends, all of whom I look forward to seeing at my classes, training alongside, helping each other out, celebrating each others’ wins. For sure I will be a Cali lifer - this place is magic ✨

Caliunity is a fun and welcoming community - I've learnt so many skills I didn't think were possible! Each class is different and pushes you with new challenges but always in a supportive environment. The coaches exude enthusiasm and are so positive and knowledgeable. It's made strength training so much less intimidating and more inclusive
Nov 29, 2025
Zora Krc
Came to these guys later on in 2022 and as someone who has avoided gyms their whole life I have to say this is the first "gym" environment that I have enjoyed.
Everyone is friendly, supportive and encouraging. It never feels like a gym, but rather exercising in a creative way and the results do really show in terms of strength and endurance. My size hasn't really changed much, but the skills I have gained, such as pull ups, robe climbing etc.. is really incredible as I've always lacked upper body strength.
The coach's are a credit to the whole place and make it the space that it is.

So I've only been training for 3 weeks but the difference Ollie has made to my health and my life is amazing. Always look forward to eacc session and having attainable goals set each day. Ollie is really profe and helps you understand why you are doing certain moves and not just getting you to do them. Very personable and a great guy!

As someone who's never got on with gyms, I've been surprised and delighted with the different Cali experience. From my first contact, I've been met with friendliness from everyone and been impressed with the ethos and effectiveness of the Cali approach. The coaches and all the staff have been amazing and the community warm, sociable, and supportive. I've enjoyed myself in a way I wouldn't have thought possible! And all this whilst gaining new skills and building my strength and flexibility so that, in only six weeks, I can already feel and see a big difference. I'm so glad to have discovered CaliUnity and delighted to now have it as a regular part of my week.

From Gym Novice to Happier Healthier and Hooked.
Joined CaliUnity seven weeks ago as a complete gym novice, now I feel stronger, fitter, and more energised than I have in years. From day one, all the trainers have been exceptional: welcoming, motivating, and totally tuned in to each person’s needs. The workouts are varied, fun, and achievable, and the atmosphere is incredibly inclusive with people of all ages and abilities training side by side and supporting each other. It’s more than a gym, it’s a community. CaliUnity has genuinely been a game-changer for my health and confidence 🙏🏼 Can’t recommend it enough! 💪 💓

When I joined CaliUnity a couple months ago, I couldnt have imagined that I would be where I am today. Brilliantly trained patient PTs and a fantastic facility combine to give the CaliUnity experience specifically tailored to your needs. I have learned so much in such a short amount of time and I am extremely excited to see what I can progress to in the future.
If you are in doubt about signing up, you wont regret it.

I joined CaliUnity as, getting older but still active in many sports, strength training had fallen by the wayside. Welcoming, diverse and inclusive, CaliUnity has really transformed my physical resilience and the broad range of engaging classes mean I can tailor them to suit what I’m up to in my other sports or how I’m feeling; active, strength based or restorative, I can take my pick. My Chiropractor, who I see every 4 months after a serious back problem many years ago, remarked that they had dramatically reduced the spinal adjustments they conduct since I joined CaliUnity; an unexpected bonus that meant I’d made a good choice.

CaliUnity is wonderful. I joined last year amidst long-term recovery from wrist and knee injuries, and their team helped me to get started with a great range of individual exercises and group classes. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming - the staff and the community of gym goers. The space is clean, open, and well-maintained too. It’s an absolute gem.

I joined Cali in September as I was looking for a new gym / workout classes that I could do early in the morning before work. Cali was recommended to me by a friend. From the moment I looked it up online through the onboarding to now - I was hooked! The classes are super accessible, so friendly and really fun! All the coaches are great and it’s just got such a great culture / atmosphere. I Iove the emphasis on skills, strength but also fitness. There’s a lot to chose from but also a consistency to the classes that I appreciate. I’d highly recommend Cali to anyone wanting to join a ‘movement’ rather than your big standard gym.

Met with Olly on Friday who was incredibly helpful. I have just moved back to Devizes from London and have been trying to find a Calisthenics and movement gym. I had my first class yesterday with Cobi and Olly. Was lots of fun and very rewarding. I haven't trained for over a year so nice to get back into training with very helpful staff and lovely welcoming members. Looking forward to starting my journey again!

Being a coach at CaliUnity represents so many different things; mentorship, connection, community, inspiration and creativity to name a few. As coaches we are able to harness, perform and develop our own coaching practice for each different type of class. This means members and coaches alike can really thrive. I teach Mobility (as the Head Mobility Coach) and Skills classes. Within each one I can really showcase my passion and knowledge.
Ollie and Kiera have created an amazing behind the scenes space too, where coaches receive great pastoral care and coaching assistance plus you are able to feel like a part of the core team. All feedback and ideas are heard, fostered and appreciated.
The community is something really special to coach in and always massively rewarding. If you are looking for a coaching environment where you can grow, that's a little bit different and provides great care - CaliUnity is the right place for you!

I love coaching a Caliunity! The playful approach to training is so refreshing and it’s amazing to see how much the members get out of it. The community they have built is really supportive especially for independent small businesses in Bath. I teach the signature Reps and Sets and also Skills and Strength classes and as coaches we are encouraged to bring our own personal style and influence to the training programs. I’ve also brought yoga to Caliunity and love bringing something new for the members to enjoy! If you’ve never enjoyed working out before, this is the place for you. And as a coach if you want somewhere that your creativity, uniqueness, knowledge and expertise are valued highly, this is it!

I’ve been at CaliUnity for 6 months and what have I gained? I’m stronger, have a genuine community that I look forward to working out with and a new perspective into health and nutrition.
No matter what level you start at, you have the opportunity to learn something fresh and interesting every week.
The aesthetic is clean, minimal and natural. I love the shoes off policy.
Big credit to the Cali team who offer a unique set of skills, maintain a non-judgemental approach and are highly knowledgeable.
A sincere thank you to Kiera, Ollie and the Cali team.

I'm not one to invest in myself, and I am at the beginning of a huge journey, understanding the way my body moves and overcoming physical difficulties. There have been highs and lows and the aspect that keeps me coming back here is the genuine love and support. The team are professional, but so friendly, encouraging and knowledgeable. It's an environment where we each lift the other up, no matter what your progress or abilities are. Keep up the amazing work!!

The best gym membership I’ve ever had by an absolute mile - nothing comes close to it, amazing training for all levels, the trainers are first class, the classes are varied and very well structured and it’s wonderful to be part of such a great community. Feel very supported all the way and the knowledge/experience of Ollie, Kiera and all the trainers is immense. Highly recommend it!

CaliUnity has been the most wonderful experience - I feel like I have found the thing I was always created to do! It’s exercise and strength training without any of the repetitive slog and boredom of a regular gum… every class is fun and invigorating, the class leaders and everyone in the class are super supportive and so enthusiastic but also challenging - pushing me beyond what I thought I could do! The results are amazing - I have never felt as strong, as determined, as motivated in my life!! It’s been a game changer of note!!

I joined CaliUnity in October last year, looking for something slightly different to keep me fit, but not really knowing what to expect. It has really exceeded all expectations I had. The classes are great fun (I never thought I'd look forward to getting up at 6am for them!), and all of the coaches are incredibly knowledgeable and supportive in whatever you are looking to achieve. I have lost body fat & gained muscle over the past 7 months, but the most important thing for me is that I look forward to turning up to every session, so I would recommend to anyone to give it a try!

Janey Rumble
I’m super pleased with my progress at Cali. It’s one of the best things about my week. I’ve got every thing I hoped for in six months- I feel way stronger ( in fact, I feel STRONG !), i can set my own level in classes and manage my progression, and I feel lean and have lost 3 or 4 pounds. I think this is a genuine achievement because I started from a point where I was pretty strong and with a good BMI, so there haven’t been ‘easy wins’- it’s been effort but it’s been fun. I continue to love the classes and it’s a boost to see and feel that I’m different. I’ve made some changes to the way I eat- and reduced my drinking for entertainment. These are big: I’m 50 so I have 30 years of habit to shift. I’ve got visible muscle tone and I’ve dropped a dress size. Yup! Cali is super friendly, ethical and fun. Love it.

Mel Mccluskey
I joined CaliUnity about 6 months ago and I love it! Apart from the fact that Kiera & Ollie are the most positive, supportive and encouraging people, they managed to create a community that is filled with amazing, fun, body positive clients and their classes are lead by some of the best PT's in Bath. I not only gained 2kg of muscle mass by 'only' training twice a week but I also feel stronger, healthier and happier. I feel part of this incredible community, their journey and I unlocked new skills like handstands and skin the cat I did not even think was possible....being 45 and not a Gymnast...Calisthenics sounded so out of reach and crazy but now I'm truly hooked! If you haven't tried it yet...go for it! You are never too old or too 'unfit'. Come and join the 'hold gang' at CaliUnity! Mel x

Joining CaliUnity 3 months ago was one of the best decisions I have made. ‘Normal’ gyms were not adding value to my life and exercise felt like a chore, I was looking for somewhere where movement felt joyful! I can genuinely say I am excited to go to Cali and move my body, and I have already made progress I didn’t think was possible because of this. But for me it has been more than just the physical gains I have made, but also the sense of connection and community that Cali provides. The coaches, the people and the space are genuinely wonderful. I can safely say I have found what I was looking for in a gym, movement is joyful again, and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending CaliUnity to anyone looking for that too.

Never before have I consistently attended a gym but Caliunity has changed that. The classes are challenging but because the classes are designed to work with others we cheer each other on. I have seen my strength and fitness improve and I gained results I never thought I would achieve. What is evident from Caliunity is that they really do care about my progress. Additionally they create events outside the gym to get people together they really are committed creating a community. It’s a gym with heart!

Steph Strange
I'll be honest, a friend first introduced me to a class back in July, and I hastily wrote it off that it just wasn't my thing... it was more that my ego was bruised.
Being able to manipulate your own body weight is tough!!... anyone can throw weights around.
The skills and strength classes rely on short burst of really concentrated effort, so they aren't like your HIIT classes (try their reps and sets class if this is your thing).
However, I decided to give it a second shot the following week... Oh how my opinion changed...
CaliUnity is a supportive and nurturing space to learn new skills whilst keeping fit and healthy. I adore that this isn't just a gym for training your muscles; you train your brain too for mental wellness and emotional health.
The space Ollie and Kiera have created, with their experienced team, is like no other gym space I have tried in Bath (and I have tried many). I see and feel they truly support and invest in every person that walks through the door.
Be brave and try not just one class, but two. You won't regret it!

CaliUnity is a refreshing approach to exercise, fitness and wellbeing. The Team and Coaches are extraordinarily passionate and knowledgable about improving fitness and skills through education and accountability. I approached joining because I wanted fitness to become a part of my lifestyle - CaliUnity is delivering on that more than I anticipated because it doesn't feel like a chore. Every session is a challenge, but it's so fun!

Caliunity is so much more than just a fitness place. Being part of an inclusive community and working out together in a wholesome environment is what is so special about Caliunity. I've met amazing supportive people and improved my fitness, strength and flexibility while having fun !!! Self care and nutrition plans are also an important part. On top of that social events are organised with the members to strengthen the community vibes!! Can only recommend joining!!

Sally Shuttleworth
Caliunity is unbelievably good fun. The trainers are super enthusiastic and love to push us and build our confidence consistently. I started Cali with a double rotator cuff tear and a lot of frustration around the gyms in Bath which are completely soulless and overrun with equipment hogging students and few experienced trainers. Although Cali is on the pricier side, you get incredible value for your money because every class is brilliant and every trainer is invested fully in your journey. I’ve seen those who are terrified of gym environments or people who have never done a squat develop into strong, confident and happy humans because Cali does SO much more than just work your body. It’s like a cult but a good one - or a community of like minded and supportive people and in a world of loneliness it’s a wonderful place to belong. So if you’re looking for more than just a gym, then this might be for you too! And yes you’ll end up finding good spots to do handstands everywhere too!

I have now been with Caliunity for almost 2 years and have witnessed first hand how it has grown from an online mentoring service to a fully fledged community.
As I approach 50, and a long time sufferer of a shoulder issue, I was drawn by the claim that I would be made ‘bulletproof’.
Scheptical -yes
Proved wrong - admittedly
Surgery averted, shoulder 95% better and a new found ability to hold myself in gravity defying ways.
It’s not just the amazing team of coaches they have assembled but the online nutrition, flexibility and progression advice available and the community they have created. From which garmin to use or healthy snacks to give you a daily fix to where to watch the rugby, it’s all there.
Onwards and upwards, these guys should be on a pedestal and deserve all the plaudits going.
BathLife. I hope your listening.

Richard Trevethick (multi scout)
It doesn't seem appropriate to call CaliUnity a gym because it provides a completely different experience.
With a focus on learning new skills, strength, fitness and flexibility develop naturally, while staged progression allows all abilities to train, learn and develop together. As a result the whole experience is at once fun, supportive and challenging.
For me it really has been transformative.
I've learned so much in 9 months and made good progress but this is a continuous learning experience and addictive. It has very quickly become a core part of my life.

Tamara Poblete
It's been 4 months and apart from having lost 5 kg I feel that I haven't had this well-being for a long time: I look at everything with different eyes because I'm better. In Cali you fall in love with doing sport, you fall in love with your process, with the small achievements, with the feeling that you are doing something for yourself, with your commitment to yourself. The coaches are amazing, always concerned to make you feel that you are moving forward, even if what you have achieved is small, but they know that it is meaningful to you. The other members are always encouraging you, no judgement, no comparisons, but from the spirit of helping. Cali has changed my life, that's how important it has been, because I have understood in a very deep way that doing sport and eating healthier, without extremes either, is vital to have an inner well-being that makes you simply happier.

I train a little just to keep my body moving at the age of 62. Was bored of my usual routine and found CaliUnity while out walking. Only 15 session in - I feel so excited and welcomed. Welcomed by professional trainers who care and explain well. Excited because the exercise are very different and challenging - using only ones body weight. The environment is friendly and we all work towards our own ability. No pressure - but I want to be stronger like all the others… small steps. Thank you Kiera & Ollie

Cali has been a big part of my life for the last year, more than I could have imagined. I found Cali after being told I needed to stop doing high impact exercise because of a dodgy knee. I spoke to Ollie and he reassured me that Cali was the perfect alternative… he wasn’t wrong. Within the first month, I felt stronger and more motivated than ever before and my knee pain had gone. Plus, i was in the best shape ever. I trained twice a week for 4 months and even in the dark depths of winter, I bounced out of bed because I just loved being part of the community. Then, in early 2023, I found out I was pregnant and thought i’d have to stop - I was gutted. But thanks to the knowledgeable trainers, I found the confidence to continue to train until the end of my second trimester when I decided handstands were a bit too much. But, while I wasn’t physically at the gym for the last three months of pregnancy, I still felt part of the community, with regular checkins from the trainers, and some of the fab people i’d met through the gym. Now, three months postpartum, I am back and I’m truly amazed how much strength Ive retained. I’m already back doing handstands, rope climbs and loads more. In my view, Cali isn’t just a gym, it’s a great big family and a fun, supportive community who’ve guided me through injury and pregnancy… what’s not to love!

Cali is such an incredible place to work out. It’s not like usual gym environments which can be quite isolating. Cali really is a community focused gym with the ability to be social and interact with peers whilst working on a joint ambition of improving your health and well-being.
I have improved massively in strength since I started at the end of last year and I cannot wait to see what 2024 has ahead.

A brilliant set up with passionate coaches who really care about improving each and every one of us. They provide personal and supportive care to all the Cali goers. Individual improvements are measured and celebrated. A wide range of classes are offered to suit all. Much fun and learning to be had in every class. Exercise becomes something that you look forward to! Try it out if you can. Claire W 😊

I've been fascinated with the concept of learning calisthenics for a while, so when a friend mention that they had started a new calisthenics gym i jump on the idea and joined.
Since joining cali it has really exceeded my expectations, the coaches are very knowledgeable and supportive in helping me learn new skills in a fun and friendly atmosphere, would highly recommend.

Caliunity is a fun and welcoming community - I've learnt so many skills I didn't think were possible! Each class is different and pushes you with new challenges but always in a supportive environment. The coaches exude enthusiasm and are so positive and knowledgeable. It's made strength training so much less intimidating and more inclusive

Caliunity is brilliant! It's both good for you and a lot of fun.
I was looking for a bodyweights type gym in Bath and Caliunity came up in my social media. I decided to give it a whirl and am really glad I did.
I'm now 3 months in and having a blast. I've always disliked normal gyms but the group session based approach of CaliUnity has really worked for me.
Kiera, Ollie and all the coaches are welcoming and fun as well as being clear in their instruction and ready to tweak your technique for the better while you are training. I can already see a massive improvement in my overall flexibility, strength and stability both in the classes and in just going about the rest of life. Fundamentally I just feel better.
Im a big fan of the availability of a mix of sessions across strength/skills (handstands may one day happen!), flexibility and the excellently-brutal circuits.
But the key thing that has kept me coming is the culture that they have managed to foster here amongst the people that attend. Everyone was immediately welcoming, open, friendly and encouraging. I always look forward to seeing who will be at the sessions.

I joined CaliUnity about six weeks ago and I am loving it! An amazing team of coaches, great people, fun and challenging workouts and an all-round awesome experience. I've done various types of gymming before but always struggled with knowing what to do, seeing progress and sticking with it. Cali has made that super easy. The coaches are so supportive, both in the gym and out, and the classes are varied and fun. I also love the sense of community they've created. Can't recommend highly enough!

I started at Caliunity in January as a way to manage my recovery from sciatica. I have found an incredibly welcoming and supportive community, who truly care about you as a person and not just your physical progress. I am gaining confidence and skills I never thought I would have, so thank you to all the team!

Caliunity has been a hugely positive addition to my life. Everyone is unbelievably friendly and positive and really knowledgeable. I only joined two months ago and the change has been dramatic in terms of strength and tone but also I have reduced my minute miling on my runs by a whole minute! And I only run once a week!! I could not be happier to be part of something so positive.

I have been blown away by how much I love CaliUnity! I wanted to find exercise that was fun and had a community vibe and I knew a standard gym would not be for me. I attended a free taster session for Skills & Strength in November and now I'm hooked. All the coaches are amazing and supportive, the classes are a good mix of learning the skills, strength training, pushing yourself but most of all having fun as a group. I am so excited to come to the different classes each week. Thanks to team Cali for making it feel like playtime with additional health benefits rather than something you have to force yourself to do 😀

It’s such an awesome place, I love learning new skills and seeing my progress. The trainers and the members are all fab people…it’s such an inclusive and encouraging environment. There’s a great energy and Ollie, Keira, Guy, Paul, Bryoni and all of the coaches are genuinely lovely people that have started something that I’m so glad I found and get to be a part of. I’m doing gymnastic style moves that I never imagined I’d be able to do! Love it!

Caliunity is such a great place to train for health and wellbeing. They take a really holistic approach to fitness and ensure there is a strong support network and even social events to compliment the awesome gym-based classes. The coaches have excellent knowledge for training around injuries and their fantastic sports massage therapist is a miracle worker. If you want to achieve and surpass your goals, come to caliunity.

Diving into this calisthenics adventure, the first month has been an absolute rollercoaster – I said goodbye to over 6 kilos and unexpectedly said 'hello' to some newfound muscles. Beyond the physical wins, caliunity's wonderful facilities allow you to gain insight into your daily routine and all your dietary habits.
Major props to the coaches who, are immensely skilled at what they do btw -they're not just trainers; they're the ultimate support system, turning my initial hesitation into genuine enthusiasm. Every session feels like a hangout, thanks to their infectious energy.
I was a bit on the fence initially, but no regrets here. It's the perfect mix of results and good vibes. Thumbs up from a genuinely cheerful and slightly surprised customer.

Absolutely thrilled with caliunity experience! The instructors and fellow participants are an incredibly supportive and friendly bunch. Their positivity creates such a welcoming atmosphere, and they're always there for you every step of the way. In just two months, I've witnessed a remarkable transformation in my body, and I've never felt better about myself. Highly recommend this class for not just the physical gains but also the fantastic community they've built. Five stars all the way!

When I moved to Bath I was looking for a gym with excellent trainers, programmes that helped you progress as well as fitness and motivation. Caliunity had it all. It feels more like a community of like minded members who love to keep fit and have fun while they do it. What a fantastic concept. Great to see that all abilities can gain from the programmes and love the way we all get to support each other. Absolutely fantastic!!!

To say that CaliUnity has shaped my life for the better is an understatement. I’ve tried so many things—gym workouts, Zumba, you name it—but nothing ever truly stuck. CaliUnity made me fall in love with calisthenics, and in turn, helped me love myself again.
If you told me four weeks ago that I’d be able to do a headstand, I would’ve laughed. But now I can’t stop doing them!
After having my daughter in 2023, I lost hope of ever getting back in shape. I used to hate what I saw in the mirror. But the incredible community at CaliUnity, along with the talented, fun, and supportive instructors, go above and beyond to bring out the best in you in every aspect. I especially appreciate how they care not just about your training, but also your nutrition and mental wellbeing.
It truly is an amazing place—a safe haven, if you will. ❤️

I’ve been a member for over a year and now Cali has become a staple part of my routine. I was unfit, overweight, lonely and lacked motivation- which all added up to lethargy and low mood. Attending regularly has helped me to see results, gain skills and feel part of a lovely community with great coaches and members. I’ve increased my membership to three sessions a week I love it so much. I couldn’t recommend CaliUnity more! Thanks guys 🙏

I never thought I could be one of those people who has been to the gym before school drop off. But much to my own surprise I have been (happily!) doing this a few days a week since joining CaliUnity in July.
I have always loved exercise but have never been a fan of the gym - the bright lights, noise and not having a clue what to do when I get there. I had been doing yoga, 10 min HIITs in the park and some cardio here and there but didn't know where to start with strength training.
At CaliUnity I have discovered a new love of callisthenics. The movements are fun and the coaches are expert at tailoring them for every level - you are always learning what your body can do and gradually pushing not punishing it. I have discovered exercise that feels amazing, not another thing I feel I have to do but something I now can't imagine not doing.
The joy is down to the staff and the community. Everyone is supportive, welcoming and real - no egos, judgment or pressure. Lots of places talk about 'community' but at Cali you really feel it. The space is much more inviting than a regular gym. Its light and airy and people stand chatting around drinkin hot freshly ground coffee after class - there is no posturing or complicated gym equipment.
As a nutritionist in my mid 40s I am very aware of the importance of strength training for menopause. I want to be strong, protect my muscles and bones and keep my mid-life tummy at bay. Callisthenics is brilliant for everyone but especially for mid-life as in combines strength, mobility and flexibility. I needed a more structured routine, guidance from experienced real-life trainers and genuine encouragement from lovely people (which I wasn't getting from HIIT videos on youtube) - I have found this at CaliUnity.
Thank you to the wonderful Cali team and family for making movement such a pleasure.

The workout is top notch and the coaches and members are all so positive and helpful. It's more than a gym, it's a community of likeminded individuals focused on fitness, wellness, and the community. Where else can you learn new skills, increase strength and flexibility, and make new friends at the same time? Cali really is a unique gym and community. Did your gym give you a personalized birthday card on your birthday? I bet not!

CaliUnity has made strength training so much fun. All of the coaches are highly skilled and genuinely care about each members growth, helping you build both strength and skill at every level. The community is so welcoming and supportive, encouraging you to stay motivated. I love being part of the Cali community and look forward to seeing what happens next in my my calisthenics journey :)

Everything about CaliUnity is next-level: the trainers, the sessions, the fresh new space, the community....
I was looking for a gym in Bath that offered something a bit different - something that would excite me and change my training up a little - and Cali hits the sweet spot. The calisthenics sessions are designed to help you to build (functional) strength and hone new skills, all under the supervision of a fantastic and welcoming team in a "small-group PT" setting. Mobility / Yoga sessions and more-active "reps and sets" sessions are also available, to add a bit of variety and develop whole-body fitness.
Add to this the regular one-to-one coaching, unlimited use of the gym, and the approachable trainers who are keen to help you progress, and CaliUnity is a top-notch gym that I would recommend to anybody looking to build strength, improve mobility, and learn new skills (handstand push-up anyone?). It beats fighting gravity with dumbbells ad infinitum.

Being 62, it was with a little trepidation that I began a form of personal training that was completely new to me and so far removed from pumping weights, running, rucking and swimming that I am used to, however, I liked the look of the new Calisthenics gym in Walcot Street and the charming reception that I got when I popped my head in to say hello.
That was 8 weeks ago and, despite never having done gymnastics and carrying injuries to partially replaced knees, my lower back and both shoulders, the highly professional, kind and super friendly trainers have really helped me enormously over these last 8 weeks as have my fellow athletes of all types.....from beginners to super fit young athletes.
I am now considerably stronger than I have been for years and I can feel that by year one, I will have reached my body weight goals and be much leaner and fitter.
The training is what you want to make of it.....there's no high-pitched screaming like I have experienced in spin classes nor bellowing as per the army but just a constant stream of encouragement from everyone, the atmosphere is always so incredibly positive and mindful and one arrives and leaves with a great sense of wellness and wellbeing.
Progress is carefully measured and the more that you put in, the faster your progress moves forward.
Whether you are a desk jockey or couch potato or a really fit athlete looking for a new challenge, I cannot recommend CaliUnity too strongly for its friendliness, positive culture and personal results and look forward to continuing my training regime with these lovely people for many years to come.
